Magnetospheric Accretion

Magnetospheric Accretion is a theoretical model within accretion physics that describes the process by which ionized material from a companion star in an X-ray binary system is channeled along the magnetic field lines of a compact object onto its surface, distinguishing it from other accretion mechanisms by the dominant role of the compact object’s magnetosphere in regulating the inflow of matter.
